One of the most fascinating groups to grace the 90s and beyond, Grandaddy received numerous accolades for their exquisitely unique music and songs. Originally released in 2000, The Sophtware Slump is now being given the deluxe treatment with an entire second disc of bonus material selected by Jason Lytle and Jim Fairchild who also provide illuminatingly honest sleeve notes. Their influence and originality is felt and made its mark on many of today’s most compelling artists: Midlake, Modest Mouse (which includes Grandaddy guitarist Jim Fairchild), Conor Oberst, MGMT and The National. Disc Two rounds up non album singles, b-sides, and EP tracks plus two previously unreleased demos for ‘Beautiful Ground’ and ‘Hewlett’s Daughter‘ and the original intro, discarded before release, of 'He's Simple, He's Dumb, He's The Pilot', the album's magnum opus.
